At SEA WAVES, we’re building a world where no military service member, veteran, or family member has to battle an eating disorder in silence. But we can’t do it alone.

Every donation supports our mission to educate, advocate, and provide support—breaking the stigma and filling a critical gap in the military mental health landscape.

💡 Where Your Donation Goes

Your generosity powers the heart of SEA WAVES. Every dollar fuels programs that make a direct impact across our four key pillars:

📘 Education & Advocacy

We lead MEDAL Training (Military Eating Disorder Awareness & Literacy) for military leaders, healthcare providers, and veteran-facing organizations—ensuring they’re equipped to recognize and respond.

🌐 Resources & Support

We offer peer support, digital guides, referrals, and self-care kits—creating safety nets for those in crisis or transition.

🤝 Community Outreach

From speaking engagements to resource fairs and veteran conferences, we meet our community where they are. We raise awareness, spark healing conversations, and grow visibility in spaces where eating disorders are often ignored.

🚀 Innovation & Growth

We’re scaling bold initiatives like the Lighthouse Project, bridging eating disorder support with mentorship, suicide prevention, and trauma-informed care.

🌟 Why It Matters

💔 Eating disorders are the second deadliest mental health condition.

💬 Silence and stigma are barriers to healing.

🪖 Military culture can unintentionally amplify risk factors—yet access to care remains limited.

We are the ONLY nonprofit in the country focused solely on eating disorders within the military community. With your support, we are changing that.
